FAQ: Is the Lifespan of Breast Implants up to 12 Years?

Answer: The lifespan of a breast implant is not guaranteed as it is not predictable when the implant lifecycle will eventually end. In which case, no matter how your counseling process has been with your surgeon before the operation, always bear in mind that you cannot have a breast implant that will last a lifetime.

There is no set expiry date attached to breast implants because there has not been a reason to get them replaced unless there is a possible rupture or other problems. Most times implants exceed more than 12 years and even last up to 30 years in some cases.
